This traditional scene is rendered in soft, iridescent mother of pearl inlay, with each fold of the retainers' robes and their joyous, expectant expressions lovingly hand-painted with intricate detail. Additional mother of pearl inlay and painted accents on the sides of the box depict traditional Imperial guard lions, or "foo dogs," as well as ornately-patterned Buddhist incense urns.
